Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked turkey breast, shredded or diced
• 0.5 cup Dried cherries, chopped
• 0.25 cup Sliced almonds, toasted
• 0.5 cup Celery, finely diced
• 2 tablespoons Red onion, finely minced
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Leafy greens (e.g., spinach, arugula, or lettuce)
• 4 slices Slices of whole-grain bread or croissants

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded or diced turkey breast, chopped dried cherries, toasted sliced almonds, celery, and red onion. Mix well to distribute the ingredients evenly.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and creamy.

Step 3

Pour the dressing over the turkey mixture and gently fold everything together until the salad is evenly coated.

Step 4

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if necessary.

Step 5

Lightly toast the bread slices or leave them as is, depending on your preference.

Step 6

Assemble the sandwiches: place a generous scoop of the turkey salad onto one slice of bread, layer with leafy greens, and top with the second slice of bread. Repeat for the second sandwich.

Step 7

Slice the sandwiches in half and serve immediately. Optionally, you can pair these with chips, a side salad, or fresh fruit for a complete meal.
